hi ladies, i'm 5 days post-op, laparoscopic removal of an 8cm functional ovarian cyst. surgery went well, no complications, ovary still in tact, etc. overall i feel ok i guess...just real tired, bloated and sore. BUT i'm making myself crazy constantly running to the mirror to see how my belly is looking :) i know things take a while to settle down, just wondering if anyone could share their experience as far as the swelly belly, etc. please tell me i will eventually be able to fit into my jeans again and lose this pooch. thanks!!
